• Home RN partners to provide ongoing dialysis treatment education activities supporting the growth of the home program, including educating new in-center hemodialysis patients in clinics.

Schedule

• Typically an 8-hour day, Monday through Friday with weekends and holidays off.
• Flexibility to manage your own cases and schedule.
• Scheduled home visits and on-call shifts vary by program and are compensated accordingly.

What we’ll provide

• Annual $3,000 tuition reimbursement and potential $25,000 scholarship opportunity. CNN, CDN, and CPDN certification reimbursement. 100+ CEU courses at no-cost.

• A culture of compassion and care, focused on helping patients, teammates and families live their best life.

Requirements

• Minimum of 12 months of RN experience.
• Current driver’s license, reliable transportation, and vehicle insurance in state of residence.
• Associates Degree in Nursing (A.D.N) from an accredited school; Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.S.N) or three-year diploma may be substituted for a nursing degree.
